Entering Text 55
Using XT9 Predictive Text
XT9 is a predictive text system that has next-letter prediction and
regional error correction, which compensates for users touching
the wrong keys on QWERTY keyboards.
1. Rotate your phone counterclockwise to a Landscape
orientation.
2. Touch at the bottom of the screen. The Samsung
keypad settings screen displays.
3. Touch the XT9 field. A green check mark will appear next
to the field.
4. Touch the XT9 advanced settings field to modify XT9
associated settings. (For more information, refer to
“Samsung keypad” on page 144.)
Note: The XT9 option is available only when Abc mode has been
selected.
5. Begin typing a word. A list of word options is displayed.
Touch one of the words to replace the word that has
already been typed.
6. Continue typing your message. Touch to send the
message, or touch for more options. (For more
information, refer to “Creating and Sending Messages” on
page 58.)
Note: You can also use XT9 mode in the portrait orientation.
Using the Swype Keyboard
The Swype keyboard offers a new way to enter text on touch
screens. Instead of touching each key, use your finger to trace
over each letter of a word. For each word, place your finger on
the first letter and glide to the subsequent letters, lifting on the
last letter.
This example shows how to enter the word “this”. Put your finger
down on the “t”, and without lifting, glide it to the “h”, then to the
“i” then over to the “s”.
